    (54) 5-Substituted amino-4-hydroxy-pentenoic acid derivatives and their use


    (57) A 5-substituted amino-4-hydroxy-pentenoic acid or its salt represented by the formula:

    wherein each of R¹ and R² which may be the same or different is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an aralkyl group, a lower alkoxycarbonyl group, an aryloxycarbonyl group, an aralkyloxycarbonyl group or a lower alkanoyl group which may be substituted by from one to three substituents selected from the group consisting of an amino group, a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, an aryloxy group, an aralkyloxycarbonylamino group, a lower alkoxycarbonylamino group and a

    group (wherein each of X¹ and X² which may be the same or different is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an aryl group or an aralkyl group, or X¹ and X² form together with the adjacent nitrogen atom a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group which may further contain a hetero atom selected from the group consisting of a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom and a sulfur atom) and which may further contain a double bond in its carbon chain, each of R³, R⁴ and R⁶ which may be the same or different is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a cycloalkyl group, a cycloalkylalkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group or a residue of an acidic, neutral or basic amino acid, R⁵ is a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group, R⁷ is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl or aralkyl group which may be substituted by one or two hydroxyl groups or a residue of an acidic, neutral or basic amino acid, R⁸ is a hydroxyl group, a -OY group (wherein Y is a lower alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group, a lower alkoxyalkyl group, a lower alkanoyloxyalkyl group, a lower alkoxycarbonyloxyalkyl group, or a 1-phthalidyl group) or a

    group (wherein each of Y¹ and Y² which may be the same or different is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, an aryl group, an aralkyl group or a cycloalkyl group, or Y¹ and Y² form together with the adjacent nitrogen atom a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group which may further contain a hetero atom selected from the group consisting of a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom and a sulfur atom), and each of n and m which may be the same or different is 0 or 1.
